How do I use the interactive Color Catalog?
The interactive file is designed to work on your computer or tablet devices using a PDF reader. For iPads, this is built in so you don’t need any additional apps, and for Android Tablets you can download Xodo PDF reader from the Google Play store. Find out more here.
What’s the difference between Volume 1 and Volume 2?
Each volume includes 250 unique color palettes, so buying both volumes will give you 500 unique color combinations to try.
The collections included:
Volume 1: Beautiful Landscapes, Winter, Autumn, Summer, Pantone Fall Color Trends, Pantone Spring Color Trends, Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Beautiful Food
Volume 2: Ocean Life, Spectacular Skies, Festive & Bright, Animals, Pantone Fall/Winter Color Trends, Pantone Spring/Summer Color Trends, Cityscapes, Almost Monotone
Will the Color Catalog work on my device?
The Color Catalog works on any device that can read an interactive PDF. This includes computers, iPads, iPhones, and most Android tablets or phones. Some tablets or phones may require additional software that you can download for free, such as Xodo or Adobe Reader.
Can I buy the Color Catalog as a printed/physical book you send to me?
The Color Catalog is only available as a digital download, NOT a physical book, however the new Color Cube™ provides all the same color palettes as cards you can hold.
What’s the difference between the Color Catalog and the Companion?
The Color Catalog is an interactive color palette guide. The Companion is a printable add-on that allows you to swatch your pencils and markers to the palettes from The Color Catalog. The original Color Catalog is still the easiest and quickest way to find a color palette for inspiration. The Companion is not intended to be used on its own (although it can be purchased separately).
What brands are supported in the Color Catalog Companion?
Pencils: Prismacolor Premier, Faber-Castell Polychromos, Caran D’Ache Luminance, Black Widow, Derwent Colorsoft, Derwent Inktense, Derwent Artist, Castle Arts Gold, Arteza Expert
Markers: Copic Sketch, Ohuhu Alcohol Brush Markers, Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers, Tombow Dual Brush Pens
You can include your suggestions for new brands to be included in the survey here. Existing customers will be given access to new brands as they are added, at no extra cost.
How accurate are the colors?
Colors will vary between different screens, different devices, different printers and different brands of pencils or markers. Furthermore, because colored pencils come in limited ranges, not every color has a matching pencil, so I’ve provided what I believe is the closest match possible with each range, based on the manufacturers swatches, the actual products, and my own printed swatches and palettes. The hex codes, RGB & CMYK values are based on the original colors from the digital Color Catalog, not the printed Color Cube™.

Hey there ,Haven’t had the chance to use them yet. but I have a question.
In one of your youtube shows you have a glove on a couple of your fingers on your right hand. What is that? And can you get one for your left? Thank you Janell.

I absolutely love my color cubes! The only reason I did not give a 5 star is that the packaging got a bit damaged in the shipping process. One of the boxes has a couple of crumpled corners on the lid. Funny that I get the email request for a review just as I pulled the boxes out to play with and choose colours for my newest colouring book covers! I am having a great time matching my coloured pencils to the cards I have chosen.

Not sure what to download and where. The cards are great.

I’m just beginning to use the color cubs but I feel they will be a great asset in my crafting.

I have not had an opportunity to use the product yet. I have looked it over briefly and it looks just as advertised. I have looked briefly at the catalog. The catalog looks very useful. The two boxes arrive quickly after I placed the order. I look forward to using these.

I love them. They are quite useful when I need inspiration for coloring. I received and was charged for two, rather than one. I think the system must have glitched. The product is great, though.

Love the colour cubes in particular-so useful.

It’s an awesome work put together definitely will be very helpful, the cubes looks very cute even as a decor for your art studio, however could be some small improvements, like having the cards divided in section of 20’s or so with a separation card in it, like 1-20, 21-31, 31-41 and so on. This way when you find your pallet in the computer download version would be easier to locate the corresponding card on the color cube, I will be doing that manually myself. Also one of my cubes came smashed on the side. Overall great buy and for sure really helpful tool. Thank you.

I love them, but one of the corners was a little bit smooshed and one of my lids color blocks don’t line up with the bottom of the box which makes me super sad. But I love them too much to send them back for replacements so that is on me a bit.

I ordered two sets, one for me and one for my mom because I thought it was such a great idea…I just wish the rest of the set was NOT digital because my mom does not have a computer

As a watercolor artist, I am thrilled with the full bundle. The options, range of ideas, and thoughts are exciting! I immediately have correlated several watercolors to pencil colors thru swatching. Very excited for future art projects in watercolor and other art.

I love the whole concept. I find the pdf files really good. I love the cards, except that I have found several cases where the colour on the front of the card does not match the colours on the back of the card. This is frustrating. Not disasterous, but it does make it harder to pick the matching colours. That said, I shall be using this system to help me choose colours to put in a quilt.

Have only just received them so have only started to play with them

Bit of a problem opening files and printing on A4 size paper.
However I am really enjoying the challenge of mixing my acrylic paint to match the card colours.

good thing, but the cards do not indicate colour pencils, pity!
